I am a Researcher at the Center for Intelligent Information Technologies and their Applications (CETINIA), holding a PhD in Artificial Intelligence from Rey Juan Carlos University (URJC), and a PhD in Computer Science from École Centrale in Lille, France.
My main research topic is on Multi-Agent Systems, Combinatorial Optimization, and Artificial Intelligence for Multi-Agent Systems. I am working to develop decentralized and dynamic vehicle routing algorithms to guide a fleet of agricultural mobile robots, with the objective of making the practice of agriculture more precise and better controlled. My PhD Thesis was related to the project "AGROBOTS: Distributed, Scalable and Efficient Coordination of Automated Agricultural Vehicles''.
As for my background, in 2025, I completed a cotutelle PhD diploma from Rey Juan Carlos University, Spain, under the supervision of the Distinguished Researcher Prof. Marin Lujak and Full Professor Dr. Holger Billhardt, and Centrale Lille, France, under the direction of Prof. Frédéric Semet. In 2020, I graduated as the best of the class from the University of Murcia in Spain within a five-year double degree program in Mathematics and Computer Engineering. I achieved the Award for Academic Excellence in both degrees. I was the seventh best at the state level in the Spanish National Academic Ranking in Mathematics Degree by SEDEA (Spanish Society for Academic Excellence). In 2021, I obtained a Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. The topic of my Master's thesis was related to deep reinforcement learning in aerial robotics.
